How to catch Ditto in Pokémon Go this summer

Catching Pokémon in Pokémon Go should be your mission from the moment you start playing the title until you get bored of playing, because the amount of Pokémon to capture does not stop increasing and it is practically impossible to capture them all. If one of those you're missing is Ditto, you're going to have to rack your brains a bit because catching him (unless it's by mistake) is pretty tricky.

Ditto is not in its own state in Pokémon Go, and worst of all, the list of Pokémon it's in It is capable of transforming, it changes all the time.If what you want is to capture it this summer of 2019, you will have to pay attention to this article, since Ditto only appears in the forms that we will detail.

Why and when does Ditto change shape?

There is no fixed pattern that the game's developers, Niantic, follow when changing Ditto's shape. What we do know is that, from time to time, the Pokémon that he can transform into change and meeting him becomes really difficult. The worst thing about this is that Niantic doesn't provide us with an official list of the Pokémon Ditto can transform into, but we've done the dirty work for you.

Current forms of Ditto in Pokémon Go this 2019

You will have to look for a Pokémon that is not Ditto and capture it, when you manage to do so it will transform into its original form. The problem is knowing what that Pokémon is, and that is where you will have to look at the following:

• Gulpin
• Hoothoot
• Ledyba
• Paras
• Remoraid
• Venonat
• Whismur
• Yanma

These Pokémon get along quite well with each other so it will be easy to find many of them. To capture Ditto you need to be patient and capture many Pokémon, this will also increase the probability that you will get the Pokémon that transforms. Ditto's activity has even increased thanks to the arrival of Team Rocket in the game, so it's a good time to go out and get him.

Old forms of Ditto that are no longer in the game

This is also important, that you don't torment yourself looking for Ditto with other lists of Pokémon that you see on the web, because that list is changing and this is the last (updated) of the ways in which it does appears.Some forms in the past where Ditto appeared but are no longer active are:

• Gastly
• Magikarp
• Mankey
• Pidgey
• Rattata
• Zubat

There have even been reports that Ditto appeared transformed into Zigzagoon but it seems that this is not true. At least, for a long time, we haven't seen anyone who managed to catch a Ditto transformed into this Pokémon.

Why is it interesting to catch Ditto and how can we use it in Pokémon Go?

Ditto is a fun Pokémon, the kind that can turn into anything Ditto has the ability to replicate the powers of any Pokémon that we imagine and that makes it a great ally to take on our Pokémon team.The only thing that Ditto can't replicate is the life points of other Pokémon, but its attacks and even their power can.

Ditto's ability to transform into any Pokémon makes it a cannon on our team, with the possibility of taking down other Pokémon in seconds but very fragile for its quantity of life points Another of the Pokémon that performs a similar function in our team is Gengar. This Ghost-type Pokémon has never had much defense, but when it attacks it can do a lot of damage to the opponent.

Ditto has the ability to transform into a Pokémon during a battle, and then returns to its original form. You won't be able to maintain its form for several battles in a row, but if it transforms into a strong Pokémon, it can give you an easy victory. It can even come in handy for beating big Pokémon in raids. You already have it?
